2. Cloud Based services- How will crimes relating to data that resides on a Virtual Hosting server be treated. For instance, if someone procures cloud facilities from Safaricom and uses the same for prohibited purposes such as storage of child pornography, who will be held liable in this case? Is it the client or the service provider? I can almost see Sir Bob Collymore and his principal officers being jailed under section 16.
Section 30 of the bill protects service providers from civil and criminal liability. This is similar to safe habour provisions in the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
